Discover:
Questioning Your Way to Faith

by Mike McGarry

“As the parent of two teens, as a pastor, and especially as a former teenage questioner who was afraid to express my uncertainties, I am deeply grateful for Mike McGarry’s new book. I love that Discover does not underestimate the minds and abilities of teens to think through and to grasp wonderful truths about God and his Word. This is just the kind of resource parents and youth ministers should have on hand to shepherd the next generation toward a deep, affectionate, and rich relationship with Christ.”
Barnabas Piper, Pastor, Immanuel Church Nashville; author of Help my Unbelief
